Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Holcomb, IL.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Holcomb offers medically managed detox, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment program to work on their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
